I think someone is tinkering with history. Correct me but I think the Hot Spot died when the funding from Bingo ceased and Wendy was unable to find any sponsors to replace them There was also an election coming up and she wanted to shed the thing. Much as Granger had a hissy fit and quit badgering the Farmers' Market. The Market did just fine without him and a replacement for the Hot Spot could do equally well.

Councillor Gaertner was originally using space in Regency Acres public school. The Lions Club Hall on the corner of Mosely and Victoria Street  was their second home.

Revenue from  Bingo funds made that possible. There was also a membership charge , I understand.

Costs of operation were high not just because of rent . I believe the
little darlings were fairly hard on the premises.They were pre-teens. 

Requests for sponsorships for the operation was not forthcoming and the enterprise moved to the auditorium at the Community Centre.

Attendance  there dropped off  almost completely. A $1000 grant from the town failed to remedy the situation and the enterprise came to an end.

That experience supports the premise, a facility needs to be in the
heart of the community.

Teens will find a way to be with teens. It's their  nature. They need to be where things are happening ...or have the potential for happening.
